I would encourage the committee to take a look at our recommendation number two, which speaks to the issue of motivation. The panel recommended amendments to the CCRA, which included a recommendation, in section 4, that inmates be required to actively participate in their correctional plan and in programs designed to promote their rehabilitation and safe integration. It's not in the CCRA now. The panel's recommendation was that it should be—in order to provide encouragement within the institution. Apart from all the other issues, like infrastructure or staffing, which are not insignificant, you need to have the legislative direction to tell the inmate that it's his obligation to engage. It's part of the system's obligation to deliver. Giving the system an obligation to deliver, with no obligation on the part of the inmate, will get you the same results as you are getting now.
